If you can wait (and i dont know how you could), you will see some pretty amazing changes to the devcies by the 4th QTR. But If you get an 8700 from Cing or TMO which launches next week, you can always sell it later. I personally cant see how anyone can survive without a BlackBerry. I have had Treos and Tungstens in the past and there is no comparison once you start using all the features.
